Faulty sending unit.

Had the same problem - turned out we bent one of the prongs on the oil pressure switch when we were connecting it.

The valve is not be diverting all the water. This valve may need to be replaced.
If you replaced both cartridges on a shower valve due to very low water pressure and still no water pressure you removed cartridges and turned water on and water pressure is good?
May be build up in the valve itself or the shower head.

The low oil pressure messsage has been showing for a long time on a 2001 3.5L Aurora Is this a Sending Unit problem If so how do you replace it?
Usually it is NOT a problem with the sending unit. Low oil pressure is typically caused by worn rod and/or main bearings. This is typically caused by poor engine maintenance. THIS IN FACT TURNED OUT TO BE A BAD OIL SENDING UNIT. BY THE WAY THE THIS ENGINE IS MAINTAINED PROPERLY. Check for loose grounds to engine. There are several. My 2001 Aurora has had sevral oil pressure transducers replaced. Just recently right after another was replaced the car was on the rack at the AC mechanics shop. He noticed an arcing ground to the engine. It is possible that the electricl surging has been burning out the semiconductor in the transducer. The same mechanic found a broken ground to the compressor clutch and a leaking AC sensor. Fixed them all and the AC works! Hope he also fixed the oil pressure sender problem.
What could be wrong with a 1988 Nissan Pathfinder that keeps blowing fuel pump fuses occasionally starting and running for awhile then sets overnite and repeats process?
I have a 95 pathfinder and had the same problem with fuel pump fuses blowing. It turned out to be that the fuel sending unit had to be replaced. . Try cleaning the six contacts on top of the sender unit make sure they are isolated
What if your 94 Buick Skylark will not stay running?
Try getting the PCV pipe replaced. Mine had a problem with it conking-out at stops and on turns and that turned-out to be the problem. It could also be a vacuum leak.
